PURSUIT OF A KILLER is one of the very last films that the Shaw Brothers studio made before they moved into TV production and became TVB. This one came out around the same time as HONG KONG GODFATHER, and while that one's a minor classic of its kind, this one's very much not. It's a fast yet slapdash kind of production, the sort of film that's not too worried about making sense and instead prefers to throw a hodge podge of ingredients at the screen. Lo Meng leads a band of mainland criminals pursued by Jason Pai Piao, but they go to prison and then the movie turns into a giallo-inspired kill fest. It's mildly amusing in places, but then I am charitable towards Shaw.
